Killer is Dead

The Latest Trailer Goes Walking On The Moon

Suda 51's games (Lollipop Chainsaw, Shadows of the Damned, No More Heroes, etc.) have always been bizarre, and Killer is Dead is no exception. The latest trailer features x-ray glasses and a trip to the moon.

Suda 51 made reference to Killer is Dead's bizarre moon setting in a recent interview saying, "You know the latest Transformers movie? Nobody has seen the dark side of the moon. There could be a house there with somebody living in it and the main character needs to kill that person, but how do you get over there? That’s how I started creating this game."

A modern day gigolo with magic glass and he going for a trip on the moon? Unusual setting, but that the charm and that what keep grabbing my attention to the game. Cant wait for the review, gameplay video and demo.

Thanks to that quote about the Dark Side of the Moon, I know this game will be the weirdest Grasshopper title in quite some time. Lollipop Chainsaw was more dumb than weird, and Shadow of the Damned was downright normal compared to Killer 7, Flower, Sun & Rain and No More Heroes.

It's nice that Suda is back, baby!

This game looks stunning btw. LOVE the cel-shading. Evokes "freaky but memorable" flat shaded games like Interstate '76, but with WAY more style.

I wish Grasshopper would port Killer7 to Smartphones though. I'm super interested in Suda's "Assassin series" games NOW, thanks to No More Heroes, but like a lot of people I skipped Killer7 on Gamecube. It just didn't make sense with a controller to play a game like that - it fits MUCH BETTER on a touchscreen, though. I mean, automatically running through levels and just selecting forks in the path? Lightgun-like shooting? That's TOTALLY doable on the touchscreen. I wanna play it now.
